The overpass would provide bikers and pedestrians with a shorter and safer commute than the Pulaski Bridge, which prioritizes cars and becomes congested during commuting hours, Aizaki said. It could also ease local congestion that could be caused if Amazon comes to Long Island City.

So far, designers have raised just over $30,000, which means they've only got about $31,970,000 left to go--unless Amazon pays for it, of course:

Designers estimate that the entire project will cost more than $32 million and be built in roughly two years. CRÈME attempted to raise an initial $50,000 by June to fund environmental impact and feasibility studies, but the Kickstarter campaign only collected $30,266 from 171 backers.

The firm will look to use city funds and private donors, including potentially Amazon, to build the bridge.
